Perhaps you don't need to reboot your wireless access point (WAP), but it would be a good idea to reboot your router. Many WAPs are really three devices: an access point, switch, and router, all built into the same device. Many (most?) people use the routers that are built into their WAPs, but even if you aren't using your WAP as a router, there's surely a router somewhere on your network -- that's what's assigning IP addresses and is allowing you access to the internet. So, as has been repeatedly suggested, you'd be well advised to reboot your router (if your WAP's not routing then perhaps you have a separate router? or maybe you're using your cable or dsl modem as a router?) as well as any switches on your network.
As has been mentioned, these are complicated devices that can behave in surprising ways. Just because a certain type of traffic is making its way between certain devices doesn't mean that everything is kosher. Don't be so averse to just giving it a try--it isn't a particular difficult or risky endeavor to reboot your network devices. I'll also reiterate that you'll probably want to reset your SB2s again before you send the update (do this by holding down the power button for 5-10 seconds). -- azinck3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23389 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
